Facing up to reality

But sadly it seems that’s all it was ever going to be: there simply hasn’t been enough interest to make this particular dream come true.

We do, however, have a bigger, brighter Sainsbury’s in town. If you, like me, happen to think books — real books, printed on paper — are important, why not lobby Sainsbury’s for more space for books? Ask them to move the books from the back of the new entertainments section to the front, alongside the magazines. And in the meantime, get in there and buy some books to make the point!

Thank you.

Sainsbury's, Biggleswade

(I guess I should declare an interest: I’m now working at Sainsbury’s; and yes, I intend to make my own suggestions from the inside too.)
